Hi Mindy! Just FYI WDW -does- have them, and I'm getting them--- even though they're $7 a pop! $7!!!!

So I'm super upset we didn't get to meet up.. but definitely next time I'm scheduling a weekend visit and I demand your presence! ;D

Everything looks great and I LOVE that gazebo decoration! Eep! Gorgeous. I cannot wait to see pictures of your wedding, I'm so excited. I tried to find the gazebo while we were at DL but I never did. WAH. =[

Anywho, everything else looks and sounds fabulous. The favors are adorable! I'm hoping the prices won't be too crazy! Fingers crossed! <3

Hello friends! Well, as of yesterday we are at the 7 month mark. In the last month I had the planning session and makeup trial, so I guess things are moving right along. I am really procrastinating on selecting a DJ and I don't know why. It might be because I wish I could actually see (and hear) a DJ in action, aside from just a video. But I really need to get that booked in the next month.

I'm also making lots of progress on my fabric flowers, so yay! I have also started saving all of my spaghetti sauce jars and Starbucks frap jars (the store bought kind) and I am going to spray paint them and use them as vases for my fabric flowers. So my collection of glass jars is taking over my kitchen.

I wish I had a more interesting update ..... maybe things will pick up after the 6 month mark

Don't worry, all your updates are interesting!!!!

I had a question--on your Blog you mentioned being able to get a special ride for the bridal party in the parks. Do you know anything more about this?

It's for in-park weddings only. You can arrange to have your guests ride one of the rides, but only certain rides are offered. Not sure the exact price; I'm sure it varies per ride.

All right, 7 months to go! Your fabric flowers and the jars sound like they are going to gorgeous, I can't wait to see pictures of those when they are all done!

Thank you Joanne! To be honest I was so nervous! But overall yes, it was fun! I don't think I've mentioned it before but I love your new signature with the wedding pics!

Hi all! Sorry I'm so MIA all the time. I got half of my BEO - it is missing the floral/decor budget, so I will post it when I have the entire thing.

I have been playing around with tulle for my dress tonight. I bought three shades of pink.


This is the three pinks, layered. It's tough to see on the camera.

Here is the same with a little bit of sparkle.

And here is the pink ombre'd, side by side, instead of layered.

I honestly like all configurations! Thoughts?

 

[librarygeek]

It looks great! I like both the second and third options. Can you do a shot from far away too? We wouldn't be able to see the colors but if might give a better idea of the effect overall, especially for the differences between the last two. I'm kind of surprised but I think that from these pics I actually like the 3rd configuration best!

 

[virtuous girl]

I luv the 2nd option of course but i like the 1st if that is 2 much sparkle 4 u... like the above post could u take a pic from far away so we can get a better idea of what the whole thing would look like??

 

[dolphingirl47]

I love the second option.

I like the sparkles a lot, but I think the gradient is really neat! I like how it looks fuller and it's very unique!
